Shōnen Chikara - Vol. 8

THE GOLDEN AGE IS OVER. One year has passed since the Paranormal War. Humanity has embraced the "New Era," a time where the divine Ki gifted by Sin Lee has turned ordinary men into legends and Kings. Peace has never looked so bright. But nothing lasts forever. In the middle of a celebration in Toya Town, a single beam of silver light descends from the heavens. Hermes, the Herald God of Chuosaga, has arrived. He brings with him a pressure that forces the strongest warriors to their knees and a judgment that shakes the foundation of the world. He is not here to conquer. He is here to audit. "Prove you are warriors, or be stripped of the gift forever." With a Divine Mandate issued, the clock begins to tick. A World Tournament is called—a stage set not for glory, but for survival. Enter Sin Lee, who returns from the void, wielding a Purified Core, a new power so great he cannot control it. To satisfy the Gods, he must lead the most volatile team in history: Zed, the Silent Serpent of the shadows. Kai Mon, a lightning-wielding stranger with an ego as big as his voltage. And Yung, the explosive prodigy, along with the healer Shell. The game has changed. The Gods are watching. And if humanity fails to impress... the erasure begins. SHŌNEN CHIKARA IS BACK!
